Each type of tank is detailed along with modifications and variants... it is a book that I can most higholy recommend to the enthusiast and modeler alike." -Scott Van Aken,modelingmadness.com(August 2007), "Japanese tanks are much maligned as under-protected and under-gunned. While this may be true after early 1942, Japanese tank technology was actually in the forefront in the 1930s ... This book has separate sections on six different tanks with photos of each vehicle ... A separate chapter discusses WWII development and deployment of tanks and the final chapter has several different sections detailing Japanese armor use in eight different theaters of the Pacific War ...

Synopsis
Contrary to popular belief, the Japanese Army widely employed tanks within the Pacific theater of war. This title details their key role in the conquests of Singapore and Malaya, as well as their later use in Burma, Saipan, and the Philippines, including in the amphibious assault of Corregidor. Tank development succeeded against the odds, with the programme often neglected to pursue the higher priority of warship development. Their use in the most difficult of terrain is a testament to their ingenuity. Steven J Zaloga's book offers a rare insight into a largely overlooked subject and is rich with photographs and artwork, providing a wonderful resource for the construction and design of these fascinating tanks.

    Prompt notifications, vendor did a fantastic and professional job packaging, shipping, and notifying about the item's status. The received item (vinyl records) was exactly of the quality and condition, described (photos matched the received item's description and appearance). I had a very positive customer experience, which added to the item's value, and which I really appreciated. 10/10, would do business again with rarewaves-usa through Ebay!

  • Covers subject matter wonderfully!

    I love Osprey books. Short and concise. I just wish they had more color illustrations. All in all, if you're are into the subject matter, they cover everything well. Worth the money!
